imo, you can't stop her if she's gonna do it. Spoiling her was bad, now her attitude toward money is that it should come fast and easy, so she will not get a real job, ever. (Unless she grows up in a major way.) That will draw her to porn, which seems like easy money, and she knows the biz (she thinks).
What she thinks she knows about the biz she gets from you. If it's true that you don't hit your models, she thinks that's the way it is with all photogs.
What you need to do is to make damn sure that she knows what it's really like to be a porn model. Take her to meet some older porn stars. Take her to a shoot with a really sleazy photog. Make sure she knows about how most operations take a girl and use her with the producer getting all the real money and the girl getting shit. (That might backfire by getting her to produce her own site, but if so at least she's doing porn smart.) Make sure she knows that with search technology advancing as it is, soon everyone with a computer will know she modeled.
When you've done that, all you can do is watch and tell her you love her.
